Xiaomi Redmi K20 128GB Expert Review Summary
Expert Rating:
3.5/5
Verdict
The Redmi K20 starts at Rs 21,999 in India, but my review unit was the higher-end model that costs Rs 23,999. For the price, the phone offers reliable performance, good cameras, stunning design and much, much more which should make it an easy recommendation. But, as much as I like the phone, I`ve come to expect too much from the brand when it comes to pricing. While the Redmi K20 is a good phone, the cheaper Realme X (review), which is a stellar handset in its own right, comes across as better value for money.

Xiaomi`s own POCO F1, which, at least on paper, should be better than the Redmi K20 in terms of performance, though cameras and design are another story altogether.Given its pricing, the Redmi K20 gets squeezed between cheaper rivals like the Realme X, and its own Pro series sibling, making it difficult for me to recommend it wholeheartedly.
Pros
- Stunning design
- Reliable rear-facing cameras
- Hi-res certified headphone jack
Cons
- Could`ve been priced more competitively
- Selfie-camera needs a rework
Specs at a glance
+
What's the same?
+
Most ‘non-Pro' models have a clear tell – they're either smaller in size, have a lower number of cameras on the back, or have been constructed using inferior components such as plastic. To that extent, buyers opting for the Redmi K20 will enjoy the same aesthetic appeal which is associated with its pricier sibling. From the size of the phone, to the handset's overall build quality and even the choice of colours, the Redmi K20 is indistinguishable from the K20 Pro.

What's different between the K20 and the K20 Pro?
+
Well, broadly speaking, two things - the processor, and the rear-facing camera module. Let's talk about the CPU first.
